    Course Summary

    A BSc degree in Computer Science from the University of East London prepares you to take up an exciting and rewarding role in the computer and IT sector, one of the fastest growing career pathways in the UK. You’ll learn vital skills in Computer Systems, Architecture and Data Structures, Data Analytics, Computer Security Software Engineering and even cutting edge subjects like Artificial Intelligence.

    This degree incorporates both an integrated foundation year and a year in industrial placement.

    • The foundation year makes it extremely accessible even to those students who may have been out of the educational system for some time or whose marks might not be good enough to get them into a standard Honours degree program. You can apply for this program after achieving as few as 64 UCAS Tariff Points.
    • The year in placement looks great on any CV, sees you learning real world skills from other working experts, and also comes with a respectable pay packet.

    If you are changing direction after starting in another career area, you will possess valuable work experience and professional awareness. Many employers actively seek candidates with these benefits. Our network of contacts, a dedicated employability service and a reputation in the legal profession mean we also have an outstanding track-record of finding students legal employment.Many employers favour GDL students in an increasingly competitive legal job market. Through studying another degree subject, you will have gained many transferable skills. By taking the conversion route into law, you are showing motivation and determination by choosing law at a later stage than some others. This looks good to employers.
